And you're welcome to do just that. But do you really believe that should be the default behavior, expecting people to remember checking for updates regularly?

- ryandrake 2y agoThe default behavior should be to not do anything that the user does not command, but if that’s too extreme for 2024, then at the very least, the software developer should obtain the user’s consent before doing anything on its own.
- sodality2 2y agoTo be fair, I've never had a Linux system that auto-updated, and even for the ones that do have that feature built-in, it's never enabled by default. But I'm sure most linux distros make network connections during startup that you didn't "command".
